We didn't take this one!

I won't be blogging for a couple of days, as Real Life is going to be claiming my time, real people, real places, real conversations, I'll tell you all about it when I get back. In the meantime, I am leaving you with a picture from the Jubilee weekend that Mr Letters From Home didn't take, as unfortunately we don't own a world war two war plane,or in fact any other kind of plane, now I come to think of it!

This is a fantastic shot, taken from a Lancaster Bomber as it flew over London, showing Buckingham Palace and the long snake of hundreds of thousands of people filling the Mall on Tuesday afternoon. The dark circle in the middle is a solid body of hundreds of thousands of people. You can also see the London Eye in the background, which I've been on a few times.

Just joined your site. You obviously had an amazing time. It makes such a difference 'being there'. We just sat down for two days in front of the box. We do know someone who was in the Pageant though, but couldn't see her in that wonderful melee of boats. Great photos. Thank you. Ann x

A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul.-Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
